Trusted shower tray repair in Wallcrouch

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wallcrouch

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Wallcrouch included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What we’re called out for in Wallcrouch

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that flexes

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Repair or replace in Wallcrouch?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wallcrouch

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
